To run ASP pages we need to put them in a web server. So, if you are using Windows NT or 2000, you must add Internet Infromation Server (IIS) from your installation CD. If you are using Windows 9x or ME you can download Microsoft Personal Web Server (PWS) from Mircrosoft's web pages. Because we are going to use WML as the Markup Language with ASP we must set up the WAP MIME types for our server, this will allow it to differentiate WAP content from other kind of files. The MIME types needed are presented in the table bellow:
♦ In IIS you can add these MIME types throught the Internet Information Services Console. In Win2000 you can reach it by following this sequence: Sart>Programs>Administrative Tools>Internet Services Manager. After highlighting the server's name, select Properties from the Action menu, Properties dialog will appear, select from it the "Edit..." button in the Computer MIME Map section, the File Types dialog will pop-up and you will be able to add the five MIME types by clicking on the "New Type..." button and giving the extentions and the content type for each one at a time. ♦ In PWS try this, go to: My Computer/View/Folder Options, on the File Types tab, there you can add the MIME types needed. |
